It seems to me that the real question is, where do you put the topsoil
etc when you scoop it up, either by shovel, bobcat, or otherwise ?

A backhoe (with frontloader bucket) could do this job in an hour
maximum, including scooping the topsoil/sod/dirt up, and dumping the
scoops into his dump truck, and haul the entire thing off.

One hour of backhoe work in your community may vary, but perhaps it is
$55-65. Of course, any backhoe owner wouldn't load and unload for
just one hour, so perhaps he would do it for $150-200.

I would investigate backhoe operators in your area. Ask them out and
they will give you a price.

Good Luck !!


Thanks James. I will definitely look into it.
